Re: Article on Skin sensing table saw

We have one of these saws here at ULL, I was talking to the guy incharge of the shop today about it. He really likes it, esp since its more powerful than the last saw. He also said that sometimes the thing would trip if you put a metal ruler into the blade, no big deal though since its not spinning the aluminum wouldn't bond into the blade. He says its overall a really well made saw even barring the stopsaw part, he said it rarely ever kicks and whatever other things master cabinet makers like about saws.

He did say however he was having issues with certain blades not having the correct diamter so you have to be pickey with your choice, and as he said to us today,"if i can save you finger for the $70 it costs for the new cartrige i will pay it out of my pocket" for anyone having unexperienced (and overworked/undersleeped design students) using a table saw its the way to go.
